Destroy the Rubbish.

During the summer a great deal of
rubbish collects in the garden and per-
haps in the orchard. All this ought to
be raked up and burned or otherwise
disposed of. If left on the ground it
furnishes bedding for insects. 1t is a
perfect wonder that insects are not
more numerous they are on many farm
where so little attention is given to
cleaning up. 1t ought to be the rule to
keep the ground in the garden and the
orchard clean. The removal of trash
should be Systematically done, that is it
should be considered just as much of
duty to do it thoroughly and promptly
as it is considered duty to plant and
cultivate. The country pays heavily
far the neglect of such matters, and if,
everyone will do his best to exterminate
insects upon Lis own premises, every
body will be greatly benefited.

Want of Education,
An exchange very truthfully says

An exchange very truthfully says,
There is absolute ignorance enough
in their country, not only represented
by illiteracy but what is even worse,
represented by lack of practical intel
ligence, to founder half-dozen repub.
lies. The number in the nation who
cannot read and write, though CON-
pararlvely small, nevertheless is very
large; and there are thousands-some
of them with college diplomas too
who do not know enough to gain
livelihood. What then must be done
to fit man for enjoyment of his natural
right t" elf government? Educate him.
But are we not doing that? Is the
school house not upon the hill top and
in the valley? Are the college and the
university not in every town? Is the
press not running night and day, scat
tering its teachings as the wind carries
the snow flakes? Yes, but still the peo-
pie need educating. There is no ques-
tion about that fact. Some of them
never enjoy the educational advantages
that are offered, even under compulsory
educational laws; which happily are
coming more and more into existence.
Others embrace such opportunities as
we offer for imparting an education, aud
yet are not profted in practical di-
rection. To some extent it may be
their own fault and to some extent it
may be the fault Of our systems. That
our systems are not practical enough
hardly admits Of doubt. Our common
schools are wretchedly inadequate to
fit the millions, who complete their cd
ucation in them, for the practical duties
of life and our colleges are grinding
out professional men with alarming
rapidity. We have already sufficient
stock Of lawyers and doctors on hand to
last hundred years. 1t is true that
the supply will fail before the end OF
that time, but we can live comfortably
and rather proftably for awhile upon
fond remembrances. What we seem to
be especially in need of is learned me-
chanics, farmers and men generally who
are not afraid to soil their hands.

weeds, which thrive under its peculiar
treatment. Pastures and meadows, fol
instance, favor the growth of such
weeds as thrive in the absence Of pull
verized soil. The ox.eye daisy is one
! of several which, if once started, grad.
ually get possession of an undisturbed
grass field. We sometimes see the wild
carrot with almost entire possession of a
permanent pasture. Corn favors the
growth and increase of certain annual
weeds, which on the other hand find
little favor when the land is seeded.
The other advantage or rotation is
that continued change prevents the
gradual exhaustion which a succession
of the same crop produces. An old
meadow gives only half the hay that is
obtained from a fresh, heavily seeded
one, with only peculiar exceptions. 1t
is an extraordinary piece of land that
will give wheat or corn crop for many
years in direct succession, without de-
crease. The exceptions to this gradual
deterioration are effected by manuring,
such as top.dressing meadows or irrigat.
ing pastures. Corn, which should al
ways receive manure, may be grown in
succession by applications heavier than
most farmers deem profitable. We have
known sixty.acre meadow to give its
three tons of hay to the acre annually
for long series of years, bat the creek
fats of which it consisted were yearly
overaowed, and rich deposit of mud
given to it without cost. By a similar
process, A. B. Dickinson increased
greatly the product of his meadows,
irrigating them with muddy water in
spring, the subsoil which he employed
for this purpose doubtless containing
fertilizing materials OF special value

Alderman Mills, posItion.

An unintentional injustice was done Aid.
w. H. Mills by statement yesterday morn
ing that he had moved to reconsider the
passage of the eight-hour resolution. Capt
Mills was rather indignant yesterday over the
false light in which this would place him be-
fore the labor organizations. What he did
was to introduce resolution, ut the request
OF the city attorney, defining what shall be
public works of the city, within the intent
of the resolution. The city attorney has de-
cded that paving, sewers and water mains
come under the head of public works, and
that the ward work is in the control of the
aldermen of the respective wards. With u
vieWto obtaining an explicit understanding,
he asked Aid. Mills to offer the resolution
which was rejected on tie vote This will
explain the position OF Aid. Mills and set him
right
